Slate, clay and concrete tile roofs

Pitched roofing covers most housing in Kent, from Victorian slate through clay pantiles to the concrete interlocking tile used on almost everything built since the war.

The single most important number on a pitched roof is the pitch itself. Every tile and slate has a minimum pitch it is rated for, and fitting a covering below that rating is the most common reason a roof that looks perfectly sound leaks in driving rain. It is also why a like-for-like replacement is often the right answer on an older roof, rather than switching to something cheaper that the pitch cannot carry.

The roofers in our network repair and replace pitched roofs, re-bed ridges and hips, renew valleys and leadwork, and re-fix coverings that are shedding through nail corrosion rather than any fault in the tiles.

Your Common Pitched Roofing Questions Answered

Every tile and slate has a minimum pitch it is rated for, typically around 22 to 35 degrees depending on the product. Fitting a covering below its rated pitch is the single most common reason a roof that looks fine leaks in driving rain, and it is why the covering has to suit the pitch rather than the other way round.

Yes, and it is often sensible where one elevation is much more weathered than the other. The join at the ridge needs doing properly, and the new covering has to match in gauge and profile or the courses will not line through.
